RIT Study Abroad is providing the opportunity for students to learn technical skills of manga right in the birthplace of the comic and graphic novel style originating in Japan. The Manga in Japan faculty-led program is holding an info session for those interested in taking the class from 4-5 p.m. Friday, Sept. 18, in Webb Auditorium (Booth Hall, 1350).

The program allows students to meet and network with industry professionals in Japan while having access to an exclusive manga competition. It involves a spring semester drawing course, followed by summer travel to Japan (estimated June 10-26, 2027). The program is led by Assistant Professor Kofi Bazzell-Smith.
